The bikers have made it as far as southern Europe. Starting in Venice, they ditch their bikes in favour of a more elegant form of transport - the gondola.

It's the sixth country of the journey and the bikers have made it as far as southern Europe - Italy to be precise. Starting in Venice, they abandon their bikes in favour of a more elegant form of transport - the gondola - but that doesn't stop them cooking. By the side of a canal, they bake a classic focaccia with rosemary.

It's not long before they are back on the road again, making a dash for Turin to help celebrate Italy's 150th birthday. In between, they cook a stromboli - an American-style rolled-up pizza - and catch up with Si's sister who lives in Tuscany, visiting old friends at their weekend retreat for a Tuscan feast. World-class food, stunning scenery and fantastic people!
